Carol Burnett wants to ‘do’ 1 thing before her 91st birthday — Bradley Cooper
Carol Burnett doesn’t want a birthday cake or presents when she turns 91 on April 26.
All the Emmy-winning writer, 90, desires is time with Bradley Cooper.
Burnett made the joke about the Oscar nominee, 49, during an appearance on “Live With Kelly and Mark” on Monday.
The “Hope & Faith” star, 53, previously spoke with Burnett about what she wanted to do on her 90th birthday on her podcast, “Let’s Talk Off Camera With Kelly Ripa.“
“You know, I listened to the podcast … I loved hearing your stories,” co-host Mark Consuelos, 52, said on Monday.
“And you said something very funny, that, ‘Is there something you wanted to do that you haven’t done yet before you turn 90?’ And you said, ‘George Clooney.’ “
When asked if Clooney, 62, contacted her after, Burnett joked: “No, but now I’m thinking about Bradley Cooper.”
“Everyone knows that this is the official morning show of Bradley Cooper,” Ripa said. “He loves this show. Brad? Give Carol a call. And you know which phone to use.”
A relationship with the “A Star Is Born” filmmaker, however, may be out of the question.
“I don’t think it’ll work with my husband,” the “Palm Royale” star quipped.
Burnett has been married to her husband, Hollywood Bowl Orchestra drummer Brian Miller, since 2001.
Clooney, meanwhile, has been married to wife Amal Clooney since 2014 and are parents of 6-year-old twins Ella and Alexander. Cooper, for his part, is dating model Gigi Hadid and shares daughter Lea, 6, with ex Irina Shayk.
In April 2023, Burnett opened up about turning the big 9-0. She told Page Six at the time: “I feel like I’m 11!”
She also spoke about the NBC TV special “Carol Burnett: 90 Years of Laughter + Love,” which aired on her birthday last year.
“I was absolutely gobsmacked by the evening,” she gushed at the time. “It was incredible. It’s not a birthday party. It’s not a roast. It’s a variety show.”
Burnett added: “I’m just so fortunate, at this age, to be able to be getting in the sandbox and playing with people.”
The special featured friends and famous pals paying tribute to Burnett and her decadeslong career.
